100% agree with you. Same reason we require seat belts & bike helmets.

No need for personal jabs.

You ever notice in every movie about pre-industrial revolution and post apocalypse worlds, the bad guy is always in charge and is always the only one with real weapons? It's because if everybody had the real weapons, the bad guy couldn't call the shots and the movie would have no plot.

Like everything else in life, there are exceptions.

A firearm in the hands of a well trained person provides them defense that would otherwise be unreliable or just plain unavailable. It affords those who would be otherwise unable to respond to an assault with equal threat just that. A firearm is the ultimate defense for those who are unwilling to trust others to…

Yeah, because that shade of blue is working so well for the central African nations.

Funny that you could take the labels off the map and think this might be a measurement of freedom in society.

You are right. Regardless of which way you curve a screen, it will be worse for all but the guy at the middle as it would leave one side or the other more parallel to the viewers on the side.

Unbelievable that a gadget site would participate in chicken fear mongering. I usually try and ignore the bias on the site because of the awesome gadget reporting but two misleading posts in 3 days is just two much. American chicken inspection is the USDA's responsibility (chicken would have USDA marks P6137, P6137A…

US origin food is still being inspected by USDA whose workers are treated as essential. So just buy American until the crisis is over. Also, according to Quartz's source, only a very small percentage of imported foods are inspected by FDA inspectors. They are more commonly responsible for reactionary inspections. …

"I want everyone to remember why they need us!"

Look, a possibly better solution!

From everything I have read about the region, they cant go back anyway. The situation sucks, but not every problem has a good fix. I'm not saying that military involvement is not the best solution here. I am saying that pummeling the country with bombs for two months with no plan for day 61 is a huge mistake that…

Half-assed military involvement is no different than a bumper sticker. Bombing with no boots on the ground will not solve this problem. The way I see it is Assad must go or we don't get involved beyond humanitarian aid. A half measure here is nothing more than chest thumping.

If we are looking for a better idea than getting involved militarily, I cant believe a better alternative hasn't been discussed. Spend the money that would be spent bombing them to instead help Syria's neighbors support the refugees. Bombing Syria alone will not solve the refugee problem and our track record with…

They don't even say what they used to identify a grocery store. In some states, grocery stores are basically gas stations from the west but without the gas even though we would not usually refer to an am/pm as a grocery store. That term is saved for safeway and walmart sized stores.

If you want to know why many think PRISM is a bad idea, look at this story in the context of the one about the IRS targeting of groups by political affiliation.

Developers can add their own context to the search interface. I would assume Google would be doing this at some point if it doesn't already.

Regardless of which direction you draw the maps, orient the globes, there will still be locations at the bottom so who cares. Changing the orientation of the maps would not change the comparisons between regions, except maybe their nomenclature.

Considering the Gyms hours, that is more than ten percent and if men and women are paying the same I feel he has a valid point.
